Zoomdoggle: More fun than work!

Surely someone noticed and let him go on anyway. How fun is that?

It’s a fact: Telling the truth is fun. Espicially when it’s written across your chest. P4CM (that’s Passion For Christ Movement) sells these wonderfull Ts for just $10 a pop. I’ve ordered the whole set (“Ex-Diva” is going to my girlfiend). Equally enjoyable is their testimorial packed website. Have a look, but know that they’re also accepting submissions. If you’ve got a story to tell, well, sometimes it’s fun to spill the beans. Even if it’s about how you’re done spilling beans.

The best bit of all? This is only 1 of 64 videos he’s posted under the name PoleDanceFan. Check ‘em all out. Having watched them all, I’m heading out to the street to see if I can’t make magic on a stop sign.

From the site:
“The Official Tooth Fairy Kit contains one letterpress Certificate
of Record for filing with your local Tooth Fairy and one reusable silkscreened cloth deposit bag for your first and all subsequent transactions. The official certificate keeps record of name, age, tooth lost, method of extraction and compensation information.

“Simply place tooth in the attached envelope and insert your completed certificate in the deposit bag. Place the full bag under your pillow. The tooth fairy will collect the Certificate of Record and place your compensation in the deposit bag.”

And now from me:
How fun is that? $16.

Remember way back when when we talked about custom clouds? Stuart’s taken the concept and done somethign with it. Actually, 2,000+ somethings. The man bought out the gear, set up shop, then released 2,057 pink-tinged smiley faces over the Tate Modern in London. “I just wanted to make a piece of work that could cheer people up a bit. I’ve had enough of the doom and gloom in the air and I wanted to show something completely positive floating up in the sky.” Times Online has the whole story, but we’ve got the video:

How fun is that?

NOTE: A little music could’ve turned it up to 11, but I’d hate to play arm-chair cloud-maker.

What’re You Doing For Fun? Let us know in the comments please!

Myself – I think I’ll try and make my first Indian-style curry.  Recipes welcome

Hopefully, I’ll survive my own cooking to go for a big walk in the woods, lay down the smack in Fable 2 and fiddle about with Flikr.

What would you do if, while rumaging the rumage at a rumage sale, you came across an old camera with film still in it. Hold that thought. The good people at MangoFalls waited a year (sometimes it takes a while the get the gears spun up) had it developed and liked what they saw enough to scan it, make a website, and encourage others to send in found film. Hundreds of pictures later, is clicking through the collection fun? Only one way to know.

SIDE NOTE: In 2002 I left a roll of undeveloped film from a trip to London (mainly Trafalgar Square and Covent Garden if memory serves – thanks for having me Grub Smith) in a bar by Union Square. Really. If anyone’s found it, holler at me.

Get the power from the source to the target using your trusty mouse to move your conductors, light bulbs and other stuff, onto the grid. Yup, topical, sceince-y and fun. Click the pic to get the game.

Sometimes it’s healthy to follow the heady (Geocaching, I’m still scratching my noggin) with pure dose of joy. How fun is that?

I don’t know why I’m having trouble wrapping my head around this, but Geocaching is a high-tech treasure hunting game played throughout the world by with GPS devices. The basic idea is to locate hidden containers, called geocaches, outdoors and then share your experiences online. There are geocoins (items of all shapes and sizes you drop for others to find) and travelbugs (tags you put to an item that travels, then place the item into a geocache). Confused? That makes two of us. I’ve been staring at this thing for a week—albeit at the ungodly hour when much of Zoomdoggle is written—trying to figure out if this is a game worth playing. You be the judge.
